Is this a problem

I just put this under some new Timber lights. I noticed a few of the leaves look a little scaley. It on about 2.5 weeks old but was under a shitty mars light. Should I be addressing a issue or just wait it out a few days. FFOF 1 gallon pot, gonna trans. Shortly

Ok cool, thanx man. I was worried that the light was burning them but it's 19" above plants
If it gets any worse (the yellowing) move the light up. They look ok to me. I bleached my plants pretty good under a "shitty" bluprle light, having it at the recommended height. I moved as high as I could I'm my tent since then.

Mars leds are not crap, they are actually an awesome cheap light :-)
That's what I said, but almost everyone on here was like "don't but that, don't buy that" it's working well for me. I got 2 mars 300 for 150 shipped, wasn't bad IMO. When the panels crap out I'll upgrade them to Quantum or make a CON array out of it.

They aim themselves at the cheaper budget market; for what you get its a great light.

If you buy one expecting them to grow as well as cobs you will be dissapointed :-)

It's not even a question vs COB, I think a quantum panel would be better, but at 75$ vs $75 I'll take a complete light, especially on my first few grows.

Id buy a mars or any of the half decent low grade led panels. Cobs have made the lower spec leds very cheap and they compare to t5's and cfls so great for a small veg tent or mother plant.

Ive read a few threads in general where growers have done single plant grows under a mars or equivelant that have swung me around to actually liking cheap ass low tech leds and i can see a lot of use for them over cobs for some situations.
